Unless you're an afficionado of old commercials, why would you want old taped episodes off TV when the uncut, ad-free versions are available on DVD??

No I saw a Entriely different camera shot of the Trio at the santa Monica Pier. It was camera footage of them at the pier I never seen before and the voice over of Joh ritter saying-"Three's Company will be right back after these messages" It was a section of the pier that was never shown on the DVD or in syndication.

All shows had bumpers back then unless you specifically mean one of the Jeffersons castmembers saying, "The Jeffersons will be right back in just a moment".

Of course during the closing credits didnt Isabel Sanford always say the show was taped before a live studio audience?
